Hi, great to meet you too. I actually got sick of waiting for good news and am now starting the process of self publishing. It’s very exciting. My first name is Gem. But Gem Stone is my pen name. I chose it because my other half calls me his gemstone. Look forward to seeing your comments and reading how your writing journey is going 🙂

Ahh, the road of self-publishing. I’d love to pop in along your journey and see how it’s going. I’m still working on getting something ready for publishing, but I love to see other authors’ journeys. Hoping for the best for you!
And aww, that’s sweet 🙂 I asked because I use a pen name too.

Hi Gem,
I know Tony, Aquileana, Showers of Blessings….
I met you at Danny’s October Meet and Greet. You indicated you like blogging events. I host 12 each month including 4 Meet and Greets.
Maybe you can check out my blog if you need a blogging tip or two. That’s what I blog about. I brought you the link to my About page so you can read more about me.http://www.mostlyblogging.com/about/
